How do you bring home the bacon (or beer)?

Post by JesseMcG »

Just wondering what everyone on here does for a living? Allowing them to drink such good beer... I know by now that Len works for the LCBO...

I work for a small software company downtown TO, called Oculus Info Inc. I'm a "Visualization Developer", and I've been here for about 3 years.

Anyone care to share?

I'm an online editor/colourist for a television post production company. My brother says I get to watch tv all day, which is technically true, but you can't change the channel and you end up watching the same episode about 10 times. Been doing it for about 12 years, I quite like it. As for bacon, always in pancetta form.

I certainly do. Have been for 5 years now. It affords me certain opportunities to try lots of beer, that is for sure.
If you`re reading this, there`s a 15% chance you`ve got a significant drinking problem. Get it fixed, get recovered!

I'm a Children's librarian, which is great except for the fact that I can't wear beer t-shirts to work...

Isn't that a double negative? Anyway, I do hear that you are a lazy sod at work and spend all day on here or Beer Advocate.

Anyway, I work for a wine agency based in Edmonton, originally based in Toronto.

My sympathies!

As for me? I work for people who make millions a year more than I do.
